May all of thine paths be downhill (until such time as ye develop blisters upon thine tootsies...then may an inn be close at hand). May all of thine cups be filled with chocolate milk and may all of thine pens be well inked. Finally, may the light of creation always shine within thee and may ye be ever eager to start the adventure anew down untrodden paths. Congratulations and may the angels keep ye safe.
--The Ascension--
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
-J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)

It has been a true honor to have their work here on the site, and it pleases me greatly to know that these four youngsters are well on their way to becoming true journeymen of the cartographic arts. We hope this encourages them to continue their love of the art!
All Hail FlappyMap! Long Live MapFeed!

We thank everyone for their words of encouragement and booyahs, smiles all around for each of you.
Soon the FHCO will be returning to school where they will have much to say of the CartoGraphers' Guild and the CWBP, and show, as well, in a nicely printed pdf and on a new communal laptop (once they agree on a color, thank you, Dell, for all the choices, but where is polka dots?) which will be loaded for bear as far as creativity, cartography, and tells are concerned.
Thank you, all, very much

SeerBlue is me, but more importantly the Four Happy Carpet Orcs +2 (FHCO +2) are Lizzy (BumbleMouse, 16), Race (Raith Eliathy, 11), Roy (Ol' Horsehair, 9), and Lena Marie (Lemur, 6) Kimi (Whurm,2), and Sachiko (MoMo,1)
All creative inspiration is theirs, from characters to maps to tells, I only fill in the details.
Heyyyy! Hail to the Four Happy Carpet Orcs. Your work is very highly regarded in distant lands. Monks bows to you.

Hey Monks, hello and a deep bow, I just visited your page, the song Scruples, is great, really loved it (listened a good dozen times)
"I was a loner, in my neighborhood, now I'm a Soldier, digging in my Lines".
(I hope I got that right).
Fantastic lyrics, very visual when you sit back and listen....I tend to think scenes when I listen to music, which is odd because I am not a music video fan, so the first time through I got a little tyke some where in Stoke Ash, playing off on his own, who grows up to be a Soldier in the 2 Para off in the waste of 'ghanistan,,,, digging in his lines,,,,cigarette papers and sleeping bags stuffed with bodies being left behind....
Anywho, great song, very great song.
right in my genre as I grew up on a mix of Sons of the Republic, Yello, and Pink Floyd...making for a rather wide genre.. kudo's to all involved,,,any chance of getting a copy of it?
Well, I have been deep into Medieval English, Anglo-Saxon, Norman, and so on, history....I have picked up a good bit of Latin, understand the idiosyncrasies of the British Library, know why Feet of Fines is called such, and can list hundreds of surnames from Suffolk and Norfolk in the 12th and 13th century.....and still have not found which John ( as in Blogate) fathered which son,,,way back when. Stoke Ash mentioned above comes from all this research, just one of the scores of towns and villages I have looked into.
Anyway, kudo's to all involved in the music,
SeerBlue

oh cool haha! Yeh, my duetting partner is an ex Fuselier. He wrote the verse and I came up with the chorus. He was dead sure that all soldiers would like that song...so far he's right lol
Yello and Pink Floyd..? Good taste!!
'Feet of fines'? I was wondering whether 'feet' has any shared derivation with 'featly' - as in 'foot it featly here and there' from Shakespeare's Temperst...hmm, just pondering.
Reminds me of 'diet of worms'
